Video: Bonnie Wright talks Harry Potter, The Philosophers, Live Below the Line
Bonnie Wright spoke about her participation in the charity programme The Global Poverty Project's Live Below the Line campaign this month, as well as her work in the Harry Potter films and the upcoming thriller, The Philosopher's, on ITV's talk show, Loose Women, earlier today.
In terms of Live Below the Line, Bonnie admitted that she partook in the one pound a day challenge in early May, where participants had to figure out means to live off - including food and general necessities - on just a single pound, as that was the same amount of money on which those suffering in impoverished nations survived. Bonnie also discussed what her experience was like on the green screen stages of the Harry Potter films, and how comfortable she was kissing costar Daniel Radcliffe. The young actress also admitted that she will begin filming The Philosophers in three weeks time down in Jakarta, Indonesia, where she will play an outspoken philosophy student. That can all be viewed below, courtesy of BonnieWrightOnline.
Bonnie Wright (on kissing Dan): It actually kind of worked the other way around, when you know someone for so long, and you can kind of joke about it and have fun. It's not like you're on set with a complete stranger where you suddenly have to kiss, so it was nice. Yeah, we just had a lot of fun with it.
Bonnie Wright (on her preference of green screen versus real-life filming): I think you can lose yourself a bit more when it's a bit more realistic, when there's natural sets around you and you're working off of someone else, it's much easier. Where sometimes, you do do massive special effects things, all these dots you have to be following around, so sometimes it gets a bit confusing, and you're sort of like, 'Where am I?' Which is sort of bizarre.
Bonnie Wright (on being typecast and The Philosophers): For me, which has been quite lucky is that though my character did very much develop, I feel like I won't necessarily be as typecast as Dan, Rupert, and Emma, so, no, I guess it's just how willing you are to challenge yourself to play different roles.
I'm starting a new film, I'm off in three weeks to begin, which is very different to Harry Potter. I'm off in Indonesia, yes. It's set in an international school in Jakarta, and it's about this philosophy class. The film takes this amazing turn where it becomes a psychological thriller. So, the character I'm playing is outgoing, and she's quite fashion-forward and quite cool in the classroom, but she's very outspoken, so I'm very excited about that because Ginny was always quiet. Again, it is set in a school, but a different environment, and there'll be about 19 other people my age from around the world, so that'll be interesting.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II will be released in theatres and IMAX in July. SnitchSeeker just received word from Bonnie's reps that due to her filming schedule for The Philosophers, she will only be attending the London world premiere of Deathly Hallows: Part II on July 7, 2011.
Bonnie is excited to play an outgoing character and she said Ginny was always quiet. But Ginny was not quiet in the books, only made so in the movie. How more lovely Ginny would be if they had preserved Ginny's true personality in the film! Bonnie seems to be just like the real Ginny in J.K.'s vision.

Agreed. She seems so excited talking about her role in her new film than Ginny. Saying how Ginny is so quite which in the books we So know that's not how she is.
i'm so excited to see, though it's sad she's only gonna attend the London premier for DH.
*sigh* that it's the only premiere I'm looking forward to watch

SO agree. If there is one important Ginny book scene to keep in, it would have to be the "chocolate in the library" one from OotP... it would show viewers her true book personality and even put her in their minds so non-readers wouldn't see their relationship coming out of the blue in HBP!
She looks super pretty with such a small amount of make-up on. I'll totally see the film she's in when it comes out!

OMFG..!!!She'll be here in Jakarta, Indonesia???!!!!!

I hope she'd make some time to meet her fans in Jakarta because I'd love to see her in person
Yay! Bonnie looks so lovely. I am so glad that she is going to be working on a new project. It seems that she is going to be moving up faster than we think.
Go Bonnie!
